This book is essential for those interested in the Millerite Movement and the development of the Adventist denominations: primarily (but not exclusively) the Advent Christian Church and the Seventh-day Adventist Church. George Knight, an Adventist himself, writes very clearly, and in an entertaining style. The work draws heavily on primary sources, and often reads like a screenplay! I especially appreciated the extensive footnoting, which allowed me to check and retrace Knight's historical work. Knight does an excellent job of portraying the Millerites not as heretics or lunatics, but as Christians passionately devoted to the "Blessed Hope," their belief in the immanent return of Jesus Christ. Knight's one weakness lies in his treatment of the recent history and current state of the Advent Christian denomination. Overall, this is an invaluable resource!

If the loud cry began in the late 1880s, why is the church still on earth? Have we fallen into the same spiritual trap as our forebears? For more than 100 years, Seventh-day Adventists have looked back at the 1888 General Conference Session as a milestone in the church s history, a turning point in its theological development. But Adventists still sharply disagree over the meaning and significance of the righteousness by faith message expounded in 1888 and the decade following. Some regard Minneapolis as a major victory, while others view it as the denomination s greatest tragedy. George R. Knight believes it was a mixed blessing a tragedy that contained the seeds of unending possibility. Angry Saints is about the people and struggles that existed more than 100 years ago. And even though the specific characters and surface issues have changed, most of the problems, opportunities, dynamics, personality traits, and bedrock controversies portrayed are remarkably contemporary. Angry Saints brings us to the sobering realization that it is possible to be an Adventist without being a Christian and reveals that belligerence not only fails to solve theological difficulties, it places us in a dangerous position. So, what will it take to change us into a translation-ready church in which Christ s character is fully reproduced? Learning and applying the lessons of Minneapolis may well hold the key to our future.

Angry Saints

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. Romans 1:16, NKJV Romans, more than any other book, sparked the Protestant Reformation. No other single document has so impacted the development of Christianity. Romans, above all, is a powerful and insightful treatment of God s plan to save human beings through Jesus Christ and thus speaks to every generation. Amid an undercurrent of conflict between the Jews and Gentiles, Paul lays out the most complete theological explanation of the plan of salvation in the New Testament. One of his goals is putting to rest any confusion as to his message regarding grace and the law that may have arisen from previous letters to Galatia and Corinth. Thus, throughout Romans, Paul tackles several theological themes: Unity in Christ and salvation for all Sin its power and its universality Law Grace Justification by faith The transformed life Hope and assurance Author George Knight states, All of us are daily confronted by the problems of sin and guilt. And every Christian rejoices in the amazing grace of God who welcomes us in spite of ourselves. Thus it is not only true that Paul s letter is relevant but that its message is second to none in the Bible or elsewhere in importance for daily living in a complex and troubling world.

Romans: Salvation for "All"

Adventism has only one serious problem: TIME. Time that never stops. Time that moves on and on. All other challenges faced by the denomination flow out of continuing time. In this probing book George Knight explores the following: Why does Jesus wait? Does the last generation have anything to do with the delay? What about the 1888 message of A. T. Jones and E. J. Waggoner? What was the significance of Questions on Doctrine? How have the 1950s shaped Adventism's continuing journey? Those questions, among others, form the heart of this important book.

Ellen White's Afterlife

George R. Knight does it again! Known for his provocative approach to serious topics, Knight’s latest book will not disappoint. Far from it, Prophets in Conflict not only challenges Adventist thinking and provides food for thought, but it also stimulates vigorous discussion. Here are some of the questions explored: - Are Ellen White and Joseph Smith two flavors of the same thing? - Why are Adventists prone to the “Mormon Temptation”? - What is the “Mormon Temptation” and how does it relate to prophetic authority? - How did Ellen White interpret her own writings? - What did she see as the purpose of her gift? - Who dreamed up the idea of compilations? - Can compilations make Ellen White say what she never said or believed? - How can her writings be applied in a healthy (or unhealthy) manner?
